I left a job in the middle of the day. I have mixed feelings about it. I was subbing at a High School. And for the 4th time in a row I was changed without noticed to a classroom I did not sign up for. Students were being disrespectful. I asked them to do their work and put their phones away. Some acted as I was invisible. I felt like an object. One student told me to suck it and a male student made inappropriate sounds. They kept making remarks and laughing. I feel like a whip but at the same time I felt it was too much. I worked at a high school before and have subbed at high schools for the past month. I had worst confrontations with students and I have not felt this way. I talked to an administrator and told him I was leaving. He got upset and nicely told me to never come back to his school. I left shaking and crying. Now I am afraid to pick up any jobs.

All I can say is that although you and I have had an awful experience, not all classrooms are like this. I have subbed at another middle school where I absolutely adore the students! Don't let one bad day keep you from taking additional jobs. Just think about all of the great subbing days you have had and let that be your motivation to keep going! Good luck. :) And do not feel bad about leaving that awful job. You should have told the principal you will gladly never work there again! It is not part of our job description to be sexually and verbally harassed.
